We can program it to fly a grid pattern if were searching for somebody in a field, for instance, mentioned Dan Honore, Director of Information Technology and Cyber Security.
For the police department, the drone can be programmed to follow the individual wherever they go, so long as it has visual line of sight to the person, added Honore.
The drone equipped with GPS can be used to perform a grid search. We are participating in the UAS advocacy network, a public-private organization serving as a unified voice to promote education and outreach, the benefits of safe, legal and ethical operation of drones, mentioned Honore.
This is a great advantage for the police department where they can easily search and surveillance the area with much faster speed and with precision. So whenever there's operation they can investigate the area without noticing someone on the ground and drone can do it alone.
